Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Calcium isotope fractionation in blood, urine and stool in healthy children and those with CKD
available on request
24 months
number of children with fractures, and clinical and biochemical correlates of fractures
available on request
12 months
Bone scans - whole body & lumbar spine DEXA, bone mineral density on tibial peripheral quantitative CT scan
available on request
24 months
Study Arms (2)
Children with CKD stage 3-5 and dialysis
Children of all ages with an eGFR \<60ml/min/1.73m2, including those on dialysis
Healthy age and gender matched children
1. All children \<18 years 2. Normal renal function (eGFR 90-120ml/min/1.73m2 \[calculated by Schwartz formula\] in children \>1 year and serum creatinine \<35μMol/L in children \<1 year) 3. Weight, height and BMI within 2 SD of normal using WHO growth charts In order to make this study as 'real-life' as possible, free-living UK children on their usual diet and dietary supplementation (including Ca and Vit D), if any, will be included, but analysis will account for medication doses and blood levels.
Interventions
Collection of blood, urine and stool samples, diet diary and bone scans
Eligibility Criteria
All children with chronic kidney disease stage 3-5 and on dialysis and age matched controls
You may qualify if:
- All children \<18 years
- Normal renal function (eGFR 90-120ml/min/1.73m2 \[calculated by Schwartz formula\] in children \>1 year and serum creatinine \<35μMol/L in children \<1 year)
- Weight, height and BMI within 2 SD of normal using WHO growth charts In order to make this study as 'real-life' as possible, free-living UK children on their usual diet and dietary supplementation (including Ca and Vit D), if any, will be included, but analysis will account for medication doses and blood levels.
You may not qualify if:
- Pre-existing bone disease - inherited or acquired
- Fractures in the preceding 6 months
- Glucocorticoid therapy in the preceding year, or a lifetime cumulative steroid exposure ≥6 months
- Bisphosphonate therapy at any time in the past
- Any acute illness in the preceding 2 weeks (when the child is unable to maintain their usual diet or has bed rest)
- II - For CKD and dialysis children
- Children of all ages with an eGFR \<60ml/min/1.73m2, including those on dialysis.
- As listed above for healthy children.
